Although the summer transfer window is only just over a week old, patience among Manchester United's supporters is beginning to wear thin.
Impacted by the uncertainty surrounding the ongoing takeover situation, it has been a slow start to the off-season for the Reds. With the exception of tabling a couple of bids for Chelsea midfielder Mason Mount, it is fair to say that not an awful lot has happened so far.
United, as reported by the Manchester Evening News on Wednesday, have lodged a second and improved bid for Mount, understood to be worth up to £50million. However, Chelsea are still demanding that little bit more, meaning work is still to be done to try and lure the England international to Old Trafford.
